Spring branch collection May 6-31
​Spring branch collection runs from May 6-31 and is available to residents living in single family homes and apartments with six units or less.
When setting out branches for curbside collection, remember:
- Branches must be tied into bundles using string or twine
- Maximum weight of a bundle: 22.7 kg (50 lbs.)
- Maximum size of a bundle: 1.5 m (5 ft.) in length, and 0.5 m (1.6 ft.) in diameter
- Individual branches inside of a bundle must not exceed 7 cm (2.8 in.) in diameter
- Branches must be at the curb by 7 a.m. on your regular collection day or placed out the night before after 5 p.m.
- During the weeks of spring branch collection, branches and leaf and yard waste are often collected in a separate collection truck than Green Bin material
In addition to curbside collection, residents can drop off branches of any size and yard waste at one of our drop-off depots for free, year-round. Plan your visit outside of peak days (Mondays, Tuesdays and Saturdays) to avoid delays.
Find your collection day and pick-up details. Special collection weeks, including branch collection, holiday collection and Christmas tree collection can also be found on the Niagara Region Waste app.
